:D:D:D:D:D:D_ **500!!** _:D:D:D:D:D:D Beer and liquor are over at the bar, and the illegal fireworks are in the backyard. The clothing-optional hot tub is still warming up, but should be ready shortly. Sorry it’s a bit later than planned, but I ran into some problems procuring the goat. It will be here shortly. To my right are the pool tables–notice how I’ve thoughtfully busted out the little windows on the sides so you can get the balls out without paying. Rules: –No qouting the above post for the purpose of making a joke. (especially the part about the pool tables) –All brawls are to be held away from the bar, to avoid accidentally breaking the (full) liquor bottles. –Fireworks are not allowed near the bar. If the contents of that bar caught fire, we’d be facing a disaster of Texas City proportions. –No touching the fireworks without being good and drunk. Other than that, anything goes (nude sports encouraged). Have fun. ---

Now, here’s the deal, Gunslinger. I congratulate you on your 500 posts, and I do enjoy reading them. I hope you have a long and enjoyable stay on this board. However, as much as I enjoy fireworks, I am not staying unless someone promises me a backrub. After all, two of the best are at this party, and with all the various and sundry parties I am attending here, I have decided to be picky. So, what do you say, Daniel, dpr? I have this spot, just under my left shoulder blade, that just absolutely CRIES out for attention! On the other hand, there is the hot tub…maybe I shouldn’t be so hasty- Scotti ---

How about a backrub _in_ the hot tub? 😉 I’m sure that can be arranged. ---

Can’t let a friend down (and the fact that you’re pretty is just a bonus). _pulls out his waterproof massage oils_ We’ll just have to give you the full treatment then. Just relax… ---

I want a backrub in the hot tub too! Scoot over! Gun, I have been meaning to ask you this for while: did you ever hang out on the geocities chat areas a few years ago? With the same nick? Just wondering… ---

Is there such a thing as a mongrel week? Just asking, as if so, I have had one. My back hurts, my heart hurts, and my back is killing me. (Oh, 'scuse me, I guess I already mentioned that.) If I had a hot tub, I would be sitting in it. And pretending that I was someone other than me. You know the drill? I am-gosh, I can’t think of anyone I would rather be. So maybe I am not as far gone as I thought I was. I still LIKE me! WooHoo-now I am ready for that waterproof backrub oil! Dig in, hon, especially (as I mentioned) that spot under my left shoulder blade? Scotti ---
